>neanderthal males were raping homo sapiens females. Neanderthals had much higher muscle mass and were much stronger than homo sapiens.

It's quite possible that at that point in time nobody was asking for permission and most sex would have been what we qualify today as rape.

Amor Fati. The idea that we would carry ontological guilt for prehistoric sex acts that happened further up our family tree is just... masochistic. Not to mention that our ancestors would be both perpetrator and victim?

I understand the instinct to virtue signal but no good can come from this.
